I almost cried when I read this about Superman: Legacy in the DCU announcements. Thank you, safgunn! What a far cry from the spiteful snyderverse version. Actually finding myself looking forward to this.

A certain DC Universe restaurant will carry over from one project to the next.

The well-known DC fast food chain Big Belly Burger was featured in multiple DCU installments and will be seen again in the new age of cinematic DC.

Since James Gunn and Peter Safran were named as co-CEOs of DC Studios, fans have been exceedingly curious about how the duo planned to revitalize the DC brand.

The answer seems to have been a complete continuity reboot (save for some specific Peacemaker-related elements). The new DCU formally starts with December 2024’s Creature Commandos, leading to many other projects.

Peacemaker & Superman Both Feature Notable DC Location

Taking to Instagram, DCU boss James Gunn shared new photos from the set of Peacemaker Season 2, which is currently in production.

The images show a building facade with the logo for Big Belly Burger. Gunn captioned the post by noting Peacemaker’s fondness for the fast food joint: "Peacemaker loves few things more than a Big Belly Burger."

This is not the only set photo from a forthcoming DCU project featuring a Big Belly Burger. A video captured by a fan while Superman was shooting revealed another Big Belly Burger location, likely meant to be in Metropolis.

James Gunn also posted a photo of the building’s interior set, featuring a variety of Big Belly Burger-themed merchandise.

It’s important to note that while Big Belly Burger is fictitious and doesn’t exist in the real world, it’s cropped up in plenty of spots in the DC Multiverse.

Not Big Belly Burger’s First Rodeo

Big Belly Burger is a DC staple. First introduced in the comics by John Byrne and Jerry Ordway in 1988 during an issue of Adventures of Superman, the chain is far-reaching beyond the page.

An obvious pastiche of the real-life Bob’s Big Boy fast food places popular on America‘s West Coast, Big Belly Burger features a markedly similar emblem to its counterpart: a portly cartoon gentleman hoisting an oversized hamburger above his head.

Big Belly Burger has notably shown up in The CW’s soon-to-be-retired Arrowverse, especially in Arrow and The Flash. Several episodes from Arrow’s first season depict characters having tense conversations at the Big Belly Burger in Starling City.

The eatery also appeared in animated series like Young Justice and the tragically short-lived Justice League Action.

In 2021, Warner Bros., in collaboration with Wonderland Restaurants, created an official Big Belly Burger meal that customers could purchase for $130 (via CBR) to promote the release of Zack Snyder’s Justice League.

It’s unknown if any of the characters from Superman or Peacemaker will dine at a Big Belly Burger in their respective projects, but it stands to reason that they could.

David Zaslav, James Gunn, and Peter Safran haven't been any good to the #DCUniverse 🌩️

Their decisions and creative directions have led WBD to no box office, and they've left many fans scratching their heads 🤔

DC STUDIOS ANNOUNCEMENT

James Gunn and Peter Safran, the heads of the new DC Studios, finally announced a small part of their 10-12 year plan for the new DC cinematic universe.

Like the MCU goes in Phases, the DC films will be presented in Chapters.  Chapter One is entitled Gods and Monsters, and includes the following films:

Superman: Legacy - yet another reboot of Superman, scheduled for July 11, 2025.

The Authority - the Windstorm characters getting introduced in =to the mainstream DC Universe.  I think this  is a huge mistake, both in films and in the comics.  The Wildstorm characters work best on their own world, especially as many of them are analogues of already existing DC characters.  And at this point and time, grim and gritty has been done to death.

The Brave and the Bold - Batman (Bruce) and Robin (Damian), supposedly inspired by Grant Morrison’s stories (although Dick Grayson was the original Batman Damian worked with).

Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow - a science fiction adventure based on the recent Tom King=written limited series.  While I admire the story King was trying to tell, it wasn’t really my cup of tea.  And he has earned my eternal wrath for what he did to Krypto!

Swamp Thing - a film about Swamp Thing (natch!).

The Batman: Part Two - the continuation of Matt Reeves’ noir Batman, set in its own universe.  Scheduled for October 2025.

Then there are television series:

Creature Commandoes - an animated series Gun wrote featuring Amanda Waller putting together a black ops team consisting of monsters.  This is probably the mysterious unnamed series Gunn stated a few weeks ago that he was working on.

Waller - a series starring Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, and featuring the Peacemaker crew.  Not wild about this as I have always found Waller to be a detestable character, and certainly not one that should be leading a series.  This  also probably means we’re not getting a real second season to Peacemaker, which is a shame.

Booster Gold - Booster being Booster: trying to pass himself off as a great superhero using his future tech.

Lanterns - a series described as “True Detective with space cops,” this is what is replacing the previously announced Green Lantern series at HBO Max.  This series features Hal Jordan and John Stewart.

Paradise Lost - a series set on Themyscira (Paradise Island) focusing on the intrigues and politics on a island of just women.  So, a Wonder Woman series without Wonder Woman.  I absolutely hate these type of series.  I would rather have another Wonder Woman film with Gal Gadot, thank you.

According to Gunn, this list is not all inclusive of everything coming in Chapter One.

Before any of this happens, there are still the upcoming films Shazam! Fury of the Gods, The Flash, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, and Blue Beetle.

Gunn stated that events in The Flash “resets the entire DC Universe” (I guess it’s a version of Flashpoint), and that Aquaman “leads directly” into Chapter One.

I’m not real excited by what I see so far, although The Brave and the Bold could be fun if done right.  And I’m downright not looking forward to a couple of these (The Authority, Waller).  I’m going to go into “wait and see mode” and hope for the best.

That is if my ancient, dilapidated carcass manages to live long enough to see any of these come to pass.

Be honest, Chris Pratt is the first name you are thinking of with the Booster Gold news.
